“Go Faster” by Black Crowes

"Go Faster" comes from By Your Side, the Black Crowes' fifth studio album, cut in New York City between April and June 1998 with Kevin Shirley producing, engineering alongside Rich Alvy, and mixing. It was a band in flux: guitarist Marc Ford and bassist Johnny Colt had left in 1997, the group had moved from American Recordings to Columbia, and Rich Robinson ended up playing every guitar part on the record himself, even with Audley Freed brought in on guitar.

Chris and Rich Robinson wrote this one, with Chris singing, Rich on guitar, Sven Pipien on bass, Steve Gorman on drums and Eddie Harsch on keyboards. Most critics heard the album as a return to the no-frills approach of Shake Your Money Maker, and Chris's singing and Rich's guitar work won praise too.
